About you

We’re looking for someone with strong experience in a commercial financial analysis role, ideally in a manufacturing or services environment, who has proven experience setting up financial processes, and forecasting and modelling multi-year commercial projects.

A solid communicator (who can influence and educate their stakeholders) is needed for this role, with the ability to build great working relationships in the business. You’ll have the confidence to push back when needed, too.

You’ll be CA qualified (or equivalent) and have a good grasp of accounting/reporting software.

Our roles are hands-on, too – so you’ll need to be as comfortable processing journals, checking the AP runs etc as you are partnering with the business on financial strategy.

Why us?

There aren’t many roles in the finance sector in Wellington that give you a chance to work with an iconic creative company – creating robust processes and making real improvements to our financial forecasting and modelling.

The business units you’ll be working with share our creativity to the world, either through designing and constructing epic immersive experiences around the world; or providing intimate tours and workshops that let people get up close with the work we do.

Our finance team is collaborative, customer-focused and caring, with a focus on helping people grow.

Additional Information

If you’d like to know more, please reach out to [email protected].

We’re based in Miramar, Wellington, and most of the action happens onsite, so while we’re flexible where we can be, you will need to be in the office at least 4 days a week.

Applications close 1 March 2026.

We look forward to hearing from you soon.
